About us

Welcome to the Independent Film Society of Colorado

The Independent Film Society of Colorado (IFSOC) is a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization formed to promote the appreciation and celebration of Independent film in Colorado. Specifically, the mission and purpose is to bring Independent filmmakers and audiences together to cultivate a thriving film community by having events such as the Indie Spirit Film Festival, film seminars, and film series.
In addition to showing films at festivals and film series, IFSOC will work to provide channels for Colorado filmmakers to network with others within their field as well as with the general public. We celebrate and support Independent film.

The INDIE SPIRIT FILM FESTIVAL (ISFF) showcases the work of independent filmmakers amidst the mountainous backdrop of Colorado Springs, Colorado, just one hour south of Denver.
ISFF is about filmmakers, audiences and film professionals establishing a relationship and supporting independent film.
ISFF has showcased an average of 50 films from all over the globe, covering a variety of subjects and genres in three years. The festival has quickly become Colorado Springs' largest film festival, with numerous filmmakers and film fans attending screenings, Q & A sessions, filmmaker panels, parties and receptions.

Peak Film Forum offers the opportunity to meet others in the Colorado Springs area working or interested in the filmmaking process. Come network, and get constructive feedback on scripts and scenes.
We have also presented discussions with experts in our community on specialized topics such as makeup, wardrobe, crowdfunding, casting, marketing, and more!
In addition, we sponsor Show Us Your Shorts! short film screenings on a quarterly basis. If you have a short film you'd like to submit, send us a message here on Facebook.
We meet the 2nd Wednesday of the month at the Cottonwood Center for the Arts, 427 E Colorado Ave in Downtown Colorado Springs.
All are welcome!
